Default New PC, ME with old BIOS

You can only obtain updates from the Windows Update site using the PC to
be updated. For the last year or so you can only obtain updates for Win
9x systems from the Windows Update Catalogue site using a Win 9x system.
XP and later systems go to a more recent version of the Windows Update
Catalogue site that has no Win 9x content.

Mike, already I need help. I went to Microsoft website and first
found that I needed to be there via IE, not my usual Mozilla.
So I went via IE7 and tried to find the downloads for ME. I
kept getting to where it tested my machine to see what I needed
but I didn't need to know what's available for my XP but for ME
....and in my VPC (ME) I had no intention of going online.
So please tell me, do I HAVE to install and activate Internet
software in my VPC ME in order to get the ME Upgrades? Isn't
there a way I can download them while online here in XP, save
them and install them in ME when I go there?
